I <3 trees. So I donate to have them planted as often as I can. And sure, I could just go ahead and donate to the cause silently but I really love finding out who here on Google+ loves trees as much as me.

So I will plant a #tree for every share this post gets. Here is an infrared photograph of a tree for some inspiration. Doesn't it look like cotton candy?﻿

Out of the 7,000+ languages in the world, about half are in danger of extinction. Documenting those "endangered languages" is an important step in preserving cultural diversity, honoring the knowledge of our elders and empowering our youth. And technology can strengthen these efforts.

Enter the Endangered Languages Project, which we helped develop and launch with a new coalition, the Alliance for Linguistic Diversity. This website helps people find and share the most up-to-date and comprehensive information about endangered languages.
